I think a lot of it has to do with the people that are spraying the wheels  :happy2:

i think it was me that first dared to say they looked slightly blue. it was only a genuine observation, then matt agreed. and the rest is history!

ok can i have some please Tc.

I like them so thats all that matters.

In fareness, Candy, your pictures youve posted look nothing like in real life, photo's are not the best way of showing a colour, depending on cam spec, light conditions and showing yours in a dark garage makes them look darker, and the other pic it looks lighter.

Strange that in our convo's sunday, you never mentioned it :surprised:, I think they are a closer match to the carbon wraps then other "Anthracite Greys" tbh.

No you havent at all mate. Mine are not technically Anthracite Grey. They are a different colour, and has a paint name, which i will find out tommorow from A1 powedercoatings what it is, and let you know its correct name.
I was told it, but cant remember. 2 Other forum members want to know so they want to get their pescara's done at the same paint shop.
(hopefully not the same colour as mine i might add). Hopefully each person wants to keeps theirs looking individual which is one of the aims in Personalising your car. :happy2:

Even SteveP's alloys are a different shade to yours candy, so each paint mix will come out different in some respects.
